Zechariah 6
1 And I again lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold, there came out four chariots from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of copper.
Atter løftede jeg mine Øjne og skuede, og se, fire Vogne kom frem mellem de to Bjerge, og Bjergene var af Kobber.
2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot, black horses:
For den første Vogn var der røde Heste, for den anden sorte,
3 And in the third chariot, white horses; and in the fourth chariot, grizzled, ash-colored horses.
for den tredje hvide og for den fjerde brogede.
4 And I began and said unto the angel that spoke with me, What are these, my lord?
Jeg spurgte Engelen, som talte med mig: "Hvad betyder disse Herre?"
5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth after having stood before the Lord of all the earth.
Og Engelen svarede: "Det er Himmelens fire Vinde, som drager ud efter at have fremstillet sig for al Jordens Herre.
6 The [chariot] on which are black horses—these go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grizzled go forth toward the south country.
Vognen med de sorte Heste for drager ud til Nordlandet, de hvide til Østlandet og de brogede til Sydlandet;
7 And the red-colored were gone forth, and sought to traverse the earth: and he said, Go, traverse the earth. So they traversed the earth.
de røde drager mod Vest. Og de var ivrige efter at komme af Sted for at drage ud over Jorden. Da sagde han: "Af Sted; drag ud over Jorden!" Og de drog ud over Jorden.
8 Then cried he loudly unto me, and spoke unto me, saying, Behold, these that are going toward the north country, have quieted [the indignation of] my spirit in the north country.
Så kaldte han på mig og talte således til mig: "Se, de, som drager ud til Nordlandet, lader min Ånd dale ned over Nordens Land."
9 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
10 Take from the exiles, from Cheldai, from Tobiyahu, and from Yeda'yah, and thou shalt come on the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephanyah, whither they have arrived from Babylon;
Tag imod Gaver fra de landflygtige, fra Heldaj, Tobija og Jedaja; endnu i Dag skal du gå indtil Josjija, Zefanjas Søn, som er kommet fra Babel,
11 Take also silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak the high priest;
og modtage Sølv og Guld. Lad så lave en Krone og sæt den på Josuas Hoved
12 And thou shalt say unto him as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold a man, Sprout is his name; since out of his own place shall he sprout up, even he shall build the temple of the Lord:
med de Ord: "Så siger Hærskarers HERRE: Se, der kommer en Mand, hvis Navn er Zemak under ham skal det spire, og han skal bygge HERRENs Helligdom.
13 Yea, he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and a priest shall be upon his own throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between both of them.
Han skal bygge HERRENs Helligdom, og han skal vinde Højhed og sidde som Hersker på sin Trone: og han skal være Præst ved hans højre Side, og der skal være fuld Enighed mellem de to.
14 And the crowns shall be for Chelem, and for Tobiyah, and for Yeda'yah, and for Chen the son of Zephanyah, as a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
Men Kronen skal blive i HERRENs Helligdom til Minde om Heldaj, Tobija, Jedaja og Hen, Zefanjas Søn.
15 And distant ones shall come and build on the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God.
Langvejs fra skal man komme og bygge på HERRENs Helligdom; og I skal kende, at Hærskarers HERRE har sendt mig til eder. Og dersom I adlyder HERREN eders Gud - - -
